I cannot say, havent used X on Linux in a long time. So the bug might be
fixed or still persists. However since the error description is quite
specific, it should be possible to review if it is changed. And I really
suspect that is fixed now...

Hi Bernd,

About 2 years ago, you reported a bug to the Debian BTS regarding X
using discover wrongly. Did you reproduce this problem recently? If not,
I will close this bug in the next weeks.

Thanks,
Brice

Bug#290395: xserver-xfree86: discover used wrong

2005-01-13 Thread Bernd Eckenfels
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.1.0-16woody5
Severity: normal

xserver-xfree86 is calling discover on configure. It is not able to report
sanely if discover does not find a device:

# dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
discover: Bus not found.
#

and it is using the wrong command line for discover. On my system the display 
adapter is found with

"discover -t display" and not "discover video":

# discover -t display
ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage Pro AGP 1X/2X
# discover video
discover: Bus not found.
